Everything you need is in our system to coordinate your volunteers. No stress: our service is running around the clock to show volunteers what spots are available. You don't have to deal with the scheduling nightmare - and the spots disappear as they fill online. Get up and running quickly: just a few clicks and your event can be online in minutes. We provide real-time support to get you started and anytime throughout your recruitment process. Happy volunteers: our one-page signup will make your volunteers love volunteering for you. That's why we call it Happy Volunteering. Are you the Executive Director for a program that relies on a volunteer coordinator? If so, this service will keep them coming back every year because it simplifies the job so much. We often receive thank-you cards, t-shirts and (once) even dried cherries from our happy customers all over the country\! ## Quick Stats & Ratings | Metric | Rating | Detail | | **Overall** | **4.8/5** | 204 Reviews | | Ease of Use | 4.6/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Customer Support | 5.0/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Value for Money | 4.7/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Features | 4.6/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Recommendation percentage | 90% | (9/10 Likelihood to recommend) | ## About the vendor - **Company**: VolunteerLocal - **Location**: Chicago, US - **Founded**: 2003 ## Commercial Context - **Starting Price**: US$600.00 - **Pricing model**: Flat Rate (Free Trial) - **Target Audience**: Self Employed, 2–10, 11–50, 51–200, 201–500, 501–1,000, 1,001–5,000, 5,001–10,000, 10,000+ - **Deployment & Platforms**: Cloud, SaaS, Web-based, Mac (Desktop), Windows (Desktop), Linux (Desktop), Chromebook (Desktop), Android (Mobile), iPhone (Mobile), iPad (Mobile) - **Supported Languages**: English - **Available Countries**: Australia, Canada, China, Germany, India, Japan, United Kingdom, United States ## Features - API - Access Controls/Permissions - Activity Dashboard - Activity Tracking - Alerts/Notifications - Assignment Management - Attendance Management - Attendance Tracking - CRM - Calendar Management - Committee Management - Communication Management - Contact Management - Credit Card Processing - Customisable Branding - Customisable Forms - Customisable Reports - Customisable Templates - Customizable Fields - Data Import/Export ## Integrations (8 total) - Background Check Platform - Bloomerang - Bloomerang Volunteer - DataMaxx - DonorPerfect - Little Green Light - Neon CRM - Salesforce.org Nonprofit Cloud ## Support Options - Email/Help Desk - FAQs/Forum - Knowledge Base - Phone Support - Chat ## Category - [Volunteer Management Software](https://www.getapp.co.uk/directory/172/volunteer-management/software) ## Related Categories - [Volunteer Management Software](https://www.getapp.co.uk/directory/172/volunteer-management/software) - [Charity Software](https://www.getapp.co.uk/directory/775/nonprofit/software) ## Alternatives 1.

Plus, being able to communicate with volunteers through the website is an added bonus. It's great to be able to see exactly what jobs are being fulfilled and what you still need to get volunteers for too. > > **Cons**: It does take some time getting the jobs and schedules set up, but it's time well spent in the end. > > We have two very large events that require over 100 volunteers for each day of the event. VolunteerLocal makes it much easier to keep organized. It's great to be able to have more than one administrator have access since we usually have more than one person heading up our volunteer teams. Communication is key and keeping everyone updated is much easier with VolunteerLocal. ----- ### "The self-service portal is so easy to use, and fits perfectly into the spirit of volunteering" — 5.0/5 > **Mohammed** | *20 July 2021* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Most volunteers are simply looking for a way to give back to the community. And what is great about VolunteerLocal is that there is an integrated payment processing platform that allows volunteers to give more than just their time. And because it is presented as an auxiliary and optional feature, volunteers neither feel pressured to donate nor have to struggle to give if they want to. > > **Cons**: The reporting and analytics features are quite inadequate. And there should be an easily composed dashboard for quick progress updates to enable coordinators better update themselves with the state of affairs in real time. > > VolunteerLocal makes it possible for us to organize large numbers of people to participate in our programs in the shortest possible time. Because it allows applicants to broadcast their participation directly from the application to their social media pages, we are able to multiply our reach quite efficiently without any additional marketing costs. And the best part of all is that, volunteers can be given an option to contribute and make donations to the cause during registration or after they have completed their service. A win win for all\!\! ----- ### "Unity Shoppe Feedback" — 5.0/5 > **Priscilla** | *7 August 2023* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: We wanted something that integrated with Donor Perfect. The system is fairly easy to use. It's helped us improve our registration process, work flow for volunteers and tracking hours. > > **Cons**: Problems with some accounts not being able to register for shifts. The text function is not available. Flags are limited. The WRAP is a little wonky. Easier access to volunteer profiles for our volunteers. > > It's been good even though some of the functions are not perfect. We're making it work. ----- ### "BEST Customer Service" — 5.0/5 > **Christiana** | *15 April 2024* | Farming | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I was very excited to sign with VolunteerLocal and may have been overzealous in adding past volunteers into the new system. I made an error on the application that was impossible for me to figure out, but \[sensitive content hidden\] and his team of developers got my mess sorted out and everyone back on track in a matter of days. > > **Cons**: Perosnally, I love the customizing aspect of VolLocal, but a few of my colleagues who aren't so web-savvy don't understand the lingo and can get very confused. The only other (very minor) improvement I'd like is for the event logo to resize itself to the 300px necessary. It's a little aggravating to have to resize graphics perfectly so they fit with the VolLocal upload. ----- ### "VolunteerLocal is the only way to go for Volunteers" — 5.0/5 > **Gillian** | *11 January 2022* | Philanthropy | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: User friendly. Excellent training videos are available to use at any time. Knowledgeable and helpful staff who handle training and follow-up very well. They answer questions and " please help me calls" the fastest I have ever experienced. Most valuable to keep on working in the area I needed help. The ability to populate a current event from a previous event is valuable. Archived volunteer information is always avaiable. > > **Cons**: I can't think of any. Everything I need is taken care of with their software and follow up > > Excellent in every way.
